Stolen bikes

Oscar from FGL/Shop 14?

I dont know, Hopefully not the same one! In one of this guys posts he talks about how create bikes are pretty good.....

he's just a troll going around trying to wind people up.

^Your right. According to oscarkhan his mum put his £1500 custom bike in a car crusher and he also has a full carbon spyker bike, the one worth £10,000

I khan't believe this

Oscar from FGL/Shop 14?

Thats what I thought, I assume its the same guy. Poor form

I knew I recognised the name; he's the genius who penned this little gem (it's quite relevant actually):

"Oscarkhan has not made any friends yet"... report him... VB can kick him out?

To be fair I think his comment was just an innapropriately jocular way of saying "gutted mate, nice parts you got nicked there". Maybe drunk.

No! That bike check video, Oscar's an UpTalker!! "Ah, a Profile Stem? This is a Thompson seat post ?" Yeah, I know what a fucking seatpost is! Upspeak, uptalk, Australian vocal intonation, rising terminal... whatever you call it it is WRONG.Wrong to the point of making normal people sick in their mouths. Even Stephen Fry says so. Ban him now!
Sorry, ban him now ?

A lapse of sanity cost me my red Condor Fratello. I was in Chelsfield, dead end street and leafy area just when someone decided to case the neighborhood. The only difference from the picture is a new Kamsin wheel set and the handle bar tape now has red flecks in it. Been checking Gumtree and ebay but nothing. What happened to bikeshed?? they were posting all the pictures of new bikes put onto ebay and gumtree and then the site went down. If you happen to see it could you let me know when and where or call the police and give them this number, CRIS 3320062/10. Thanks.

Sorry for reposting but for some resdon The image didnt work and there doesn't seem to be any edit button... Cheers!

Well, Gumtree in Kent does a better job of finding bikes than the police!! Fond an ad with no picture, scant details describing my Condor, call the police who say you have to see the bike to identify it is yours before we send anyone out, phone 'John' who placed the ad who agreed to see me, said I wanted a bike for my son's birthday, John was quite obliging, I coughed up £140, got my bike back sans rear rack, have now learned an expensive lesson, lock it up ALWAYS no matter where you are and use a good lock. Won't make the same mistake twice.

Also learned that gumtree seems to have separate sites for different areas. John posted the ad 5 days ago and I just found it this morning.

You shouldn't need to cough up, it's your bike, provide proof, bring lots of friend and snatch it back without paying.

I shouldn't have to pay, I agree, but it was my own stupidity I am paying for, had I locked it up I would not have had any of this grief.

In addition, don't want to get into a confrontation with the guy and all the nonsense that that will bring. Maybe Mr. Fixit..........

I have informed the police about what we did, have a description of John for the police. But the best they can get him for is possession of stolen property, a tap on the wrist and off he goes to steal another bike. Jail is not the right place for this guy as jail is a goofy idea for all but the worst, putting all the bad guys together in one place and then let them out. Hmmmm wonder what happens next????

Tag him and he will take the tag off and go steal another bike.

I am getting off track, I have my bike back without any fuss and that is most important. If the police, lawyers and courts can get it together to impose some sensible penalty and maybe order him to pay me back then fine. I can wait.

A bit of I lost the battle but might win the war type thinking. Also lesson learned.

Is it right, is it fair, not a chance but it is the place we are at.

Karma will serve justice in the end!

those who khan, teach.

Amazingly my friend got his focus cayo back today. Spotted it on gumtree a few weeks ago and got the cop who investigated the original theft involved. Eventually the police recovered it and handed it back. It has had quite a few parts changed (stem, pedals, bar tape, etc).It was advertised with a very high price which kept it from selling - sounds like the gumtree seller bought it from some other dodgy fucker for a lower price and was hoping to turn a good profit.

^yes!

oh and what a khant!

Good to hear your friend got a policeman to investigate, I got a letter dated 2 days after I reported the theft, 'We have reviewed the crime but so far there is not enough evidence to continue with further inquiries and the case will now be closed. However if we get any new evidence we will of course act on that new information.

We appreciate that this decision may be disappointing to you...............'

No policeman for me.

Well his whole flat was cleaned out so it was a bit more serious and they had the name of the copper to call. When my own bike was simply nicked in public I got the same letter as you.

I might have just seen this; outside the bike shop on Wells Street. Freshly painted all black, I recognised the forks as I cycled past. Can't do anything myself as I off to Wales in 10 minutes.

my friend had his bike stolen from the job centre at mare street
